Subject: dax: protect PTE modification on WP fault by radix tree entry lock

Currently PTE gets updated in wp_pfn_shared() after dax_pfn_mkwrite() has
released corresponding radix tree entry lock.  When we want to
writeprotect PTE on cache flush, we need PTE modification to happen under
radix tree entry lock to ensure consistent updates of PTE and radix tree
(standard faults use page lock to ensure this consistency).  So move
update of PTE bit into dax_pfn_mkwrite().
